A new Daredevil series is in the works at Disney Plus.
According to Variety, Covert Affairs duo Matt Corman and Chris Ord are attached to write and executive produce a series that will once again bring the Man Without Fear into the Marvel fold.
The MCU has already established Charlie Cox’s Matt Murdock and Vincent D’Onofrio’s Kingpin exist in their universe after the two debuted on Netflix’s street-level Marvel Universe.
Cox reprised his role as Murdock when he was defending Peter Parker in Spider-Man: No Way Home and D’Onofrio returned as the villain in Disney Plus’ Hawkeye.
These appearances have gotten fans thinking this is just the beginning for the two as Marvel continues to expand its TV and movie universe. But rather than a new Daredevil series, speculation suggested Cox and D’Onofrio could make more guest appearances in shows like She-Hulk, which centers around the legal world, or Echo, who has a connection to Kingpin.
Daredevil's film and TV history is still fairly new. Ben Affleck played the character in 2003 in a solo movie before Cox stepped into the role in 2015 after Netflix announced a deal with Marvel to produce a series of shows based on The Defenders.
Alongside Cox's Matt Murdock, Netflix also introduced Jessica Jones (Krysten Ritter), Luke Cage (Mike Colter), and Iron Fist (Finn Jones).
These shows were later removed from Netflix but were later re-released on Disney Plus, completely intact without any content censored.
